I play 1v1 mostly and when the other player is using planning mode, first it seems there's no movement al all for some minutes, which often makes me think connection broke down, then suddenly all units move at the same t...

Re: good orcs ?

Great discussion, thank you all for those very interesting thoughts. But : the real reason for the existence of the "always evil" stereotype isn't that the authors would adhere to Nazi beliefs Aren't the german Nazis the prototype of "always evil" themselves? I don't mean to turn...

Re: Looking for players PBEM mode

Hi Mesala. This idea sounds very interesting to me. Especially the part of "being a gentlemen's game". The fact that you can see enemy's moves would, of course, be less important, if the whole game started without fog and shroud. What frequency of turns would you propose? One turn a day, a...

Re: good orcs ?

Cool. I love philosophical discussions... :D it implies that there was time when they werent good. True. But this whole thing started as an in-game chat with someone, that stated that "Orcs are bad by nature/definition/whatever". So now what ?!? Though the whole word good is somewhat uncle...

Re: How long till your skills decline?

30 minutes.

step 1 ---- play a game at your usual skill
step 2 ---- eat a giant plate of potatoes, beans (and meat if you like that) in an oily sauce
step 3 ---- play a game at heavily reduced skills

:lol:

re-login after disconnect without typing password again ?

hello people. there's something that i notice from time to time, which i don't understand. when a connection gets acidentally broken in a game, and the server kicks me out to the main-menu-screen (not the desktop), i can login again to the lobby, but *without* being asked for my password . i'm far f...
